Why It Matters
The Santos-Dumont is one of the earliest purpose-built wristwatches, originally created for aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont. The XL configuration modernizes that legacy with a larger case and mechanical movement, while preserving the ultra-thin profile and minimalist design that define the model.
